Now what do i do with them? LOL. I do not know how to knit so i went out looking or the long loom. I found a set of loops and threads 4 pc rectangle ones but wasn't sure if i wanted those or one that was adjustable. But, i found a set of 4 round looms and had to get them. Now i have no idea what to do with them. What kind of yarn is best to use? What all can i make with them even though they are round? Tutorials, suggestions, links, all are welcome. So, bring it on :)
I'm on Ravelry. I just spent most of the day updating my projects and adding my yarn.

Never used looms but I love vannas yarn. Red heart is ok because it's cheap but it's not soft and if you get the soft it's not spun very tight so it easily frays.
I love vanna's yarn too and i know exactly what you are talking about with the red heart soft yarn unraveling. It's a pain. My favorite though seems to be loops and threads. I'm using it to make my son's blanket and it seems to be going so smoothly.
ROUND LOOMS! yay! Tons of things you can make!
If you learn the basic e-wrap method, which is what hte instructions should show you how to do, you can start with a hat! highly reocmmend you make a few hats first!
